Purchased a few weeks ago. Was struggling between a Surface Book and MacBook. Although pretty pricey, I went with the Surface Book because of the touch screen feature. So far it's quick and boots super fast. Only downsides so far is that it's a little "top heavy", "skid pads" on the under side of the keyboard are not very aggressive and a kickstand on the screen would be nice when using as a tablet.

After using it for a week or so I really want to love this. However the battery drains like crazy. The screen often won't unlock forcing me to restart. For the price point I shouldn't be having any problems thus I will probably be sending this back.

Recently recieved this product and I have found it to be easy to use and very pleasing. Everything was easy to set up and the interface is great when you learn how to use it. The only problem was the camera not working for anything, so I had to roll back the driver software. An easy fix, but a problem still.

The weight is perfect. The keyboard is amazing for the size. Backlit on the keyboard is excellent. Resolution is good but it's been tough to get all of my software to work on such a high resolution screen, such as Dream Weaver. But that is the software's issue to the Surface Book. Starts up amazingly fast!

I am mostly pleased with my purchase. Other than the fact I cannot disconnect the tablet from the keyboard when the battery is low, and that the tablet doesn't lay flat on the table when disconnected, I love it. The pen works great, the computer operates smooth, and although it takes a bit of force to separate the tablet from the keyboard, it detaches with no issue. 7/10
